PORTLAND, Ore. – A new law set a convicted sex offender free early and police said he went right back to the scene of his original crime to attack another woman.Demetrius Payton, 33, was released from prison two months early for crimes he committed in 2008 at the Willow Springs Apartments because of a new law aimed at reducing prison crowding and the cost to taxpayers.He was convicted in January of 2009 of breaking into two apartments and sexually assaulting one woman.Police said Payton went back to the apartment complex on Monday and sexually assaulted another woman in her unit after he broke into it. Police arrested him on Tuesday and charged him with first-degree burglary and first-degree unlawful sexual penetration.Tenants of the complex said this is a perfect example of why the law needs to be changed.“If he was already in jail for that he probably should have stayed. … He just got out and did the same thing again,” said a tenant of the apartment complex who wanted to be identified only as Arlene.Oregon state House members who helped write the new law said in previous interviews they will work to undo what they did in the upcoming special legislative session in February.
I agree. Considering most if not all always go out and repeat, just execute them or send them to Mars. Then Mars would become a new Austrialia, and we'd be getting steaks from a Martian-themed restaurant.
(AFP) – 5 hours agoSAN FRANCISCO — Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested California could ease its crowded prison system by sending thousands of undocumented inmates to specially built jails in Mexico.Speaking to reporters at the Sacramento Press Club, Schwarzenegger said California could ease its strained finances by a billion dollars if 20,000 illegal immigrants currently held in the state were housed across the border."I think that we can do so much better in the prison system alone if we can go and take, inmates for instance, the 20,000 inmates that are illegal immigrants that are here and get them to Mexico," Schwarzenegger said."Think about it -- if California gives Mexico the money. Not 'Hey, you take care of them, these are your citizens'. No. Not at all."We pay them to build the prison down in Mexico. And then we have those undocumented immigrants down there in prison. It would half the costs to build the prison and run the prison. We could save a billion dollars right there that could go into higher education."Schwarzenegger's remarks come as California prepares for the latest in a long line of state budget crises.Schwarzenegger declared a fiscal emergency earlier this month, warning severe cuts were necessary to stem a 19.9-billion-dollar deficit.California has some of the most overcrowded prisons in the United States, with an estimated 170,000 inmates housed in facilities designed for 100,000 people, according to 2007 figures.Schwarzenegger said he believed the financial burden of California's prisons could be eased if the private sector moved into the industry."I think that there is no reason why we should have just state employees and public prisons," Schwarzenegger said. "Why shouldn't we have private prisons and private prisons competing with public prisons?"I don't want to go and get rid of public prisons, not at all. It's not an attack on their labor union even though they may take it as such.Copyright © 2010 AFP. All rights reserved

I don't know what should be done with these people. Too bad we can't really send them to Mars.
